The Kingdom of Yugoslavia was a country in central Europe up until 1992. previously it was called the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. Yugoslavia was invaded during world war two by the axis powers but the Democratic Federal Yugoslavia was declared by the partisan resistance in 1943 and recognised by the king as the government in 1944. a year later the monarchy was abolished and the country was renamed the Federal Peoples Republic of Yugoslavia and a communist government was established. In 1963 it was again, renamed the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The Country was made up of 6 socialist Republics and two autonomous provinces (SR Bosnia and Herzegovina, SR Croatia, SR Macedonia, SR Montenegro, SR Slovenia, SR Serbia, the AP Vojvodina and AP Kosovo).
